Our Philosophy
Camp is about meeting new challenges, making new friends and having fun. But there’s a deeply held philosophy behind the mission and a method for getting kids engaged.
We strive to:
Improve and develop social and interpersonal skills
Promote campers’ self-esteem
Help campers appreciate nature’s wonders
Allow campers to experience working and living as a team
Give campers an environment to expand their independence
Provide the opportunity for campers to set goals, learn new skills and challenge themselves
Help campers make one new friend a day
How do we do it?
Announcements are made at every meal time to highlight camper accomplishments
Golden Feathers for each activity are awarded to those campers who showed particular effort, improvement or skill throughout the session
Campers will experience Camp Fires, weekly Bunk Nights and Camp Outs every session
Campers live in a cabin or tent with peers and counselors where they will undertake the responsibilities of keeping the area clean and making group decisions
Campers will decide on their very own activities schedule and when they would like to take them
Campers are encouraged to learn at least one new skill while at camp, and most learn even more
